Thanks Rory,
Had a great time ... Deadhead enjoyed hosting the room crawls on Fri and Sat ... had tons of fun ... too much Rum ( not really ) .. The idea of twisting Zombies at 2:30 am with a belly full of drink sounds like a great idea... well until the next morning when my Knee said ... WTF were you thinking? .. LOL .. but umm well I would do it all over again .. as a matter of fact lets do it again next year... YAH BABY!! Thanks to everyone involved and all the new friends we got to make this year...
Mahalo,

Another awesome year at Caliente! Already working out how to step up my game for next years room crawl. Thanks again for another year of drunken revelry Rory!

So much fun....I think this was my favorite Tiki Caliente yet! I stayed up until 4am Saturday and Sunday mornings, and everything was such a blur that I woke up with a photo of Rusty "Knockers Up" Warren on my camera! Thanks to her pal Kitty Chow for coaxing her out with Mr. and Ms. Tiki America!

Rory you are a wonderful host, thank you for all the hard work you put into this. I would have had a lot more fun if I didn't crash my bicycle Saturday morning. I missed the room parties and meeting up with everyone. The weather was perfect, the bands sounded great, the bbq was a nice addition and the Curve looks great.
We look forward to the next one.

Thanks Rory!! The Ding Dong Devils had a blast (even Puka von Pele, hiding behind the drum kit)!! Sorry we kept some folks awake who needed some sleep! This was the best Tiki Caliente so far, in my estimation!!! (photo by David Gene Echt)

Thanks so much to Rory for making this year's event better than last! MC Crazy Al was in perfect form and the bands from openers Kitty Chow and Fisherman to The Smokin' Menehunes closing act were fantastic. A great weekend long atmosphere was provided by Big Tiki Dude (I say burn down the new wooden shower and move him back where he belongs) and meeting new friends as well as old made me happy and ready to do it again. Special thanks to Paul and Scott!
I did not get pictures but the late set by the Ding Dong Devils was my fave. Here are pictures from the Saturday show.
The smooth stylings of The Martini Kings w Sonny Moon.
Jason really rounded out the sound when he joined in.
Thee Swank Bastards really are swank bastards.
You think the dude in the pool is a bit nervous?
